Press Release Press release SWISS Pavilion with an attractive anniversary program The 14 exhibitors at the SWISS Pavilion in Hall 4.2, Stand No. L007-L029/M008-M028 are also in the mood to celebrate the 50th anniversary of ISM. They have every reason to be. With their innovative product range, they will once again be wowing the taste buds of discerning international trade show visitors. Even though the SWISS Pavilion is still young compared to the ISM, it has been successfully bringing together Swiss confectionery expertise under one roof for 32 years. In addition to long-standing exhibitors, a regular selection of newcomers also provides new impetus. In ISM's 50th year, the 14 exhibitors in the SWISS Pavilion will once again be offering an interesting and innovative exhibition program. The products are marked by their excellent quality, high enjoyment factor and sustainability. Once again, numerous new developments will create excitement and draw in visitors. Refined taste in a small format Chocolat Bernrain AG is one of Switerland's pioneers when it comes to quality organic and Fairtrade chocolate products. At the SWISS Pavilion, the private label specialist will be presenting its new range of quality organic and Fairtrade bars made from certified raw materials. The three new small-format chocolate bars are available in Milky Crisp, Cherry Berry and Pomegranate varieties. With their unique taste, the bars also provide pleasure and diversity on the go. The exhibitor is also expanding its “No Added Sugar” line, which has existed since 1960, to nine flavors and is improving the line with the sugar substitute “Maltitol” in the recipe. The following flavors are now available: No Added Sugar Milk; No Added Sugar Milk with whole hazelnuts; No Added Sugar Gianduja; No Added Sugar White Vanilla; No Added Sugar Dark (53%); No Added Sugar Extra Dark (72%) with cocoa nibs; No Added Sugar Dark (53%) with stevia extract; No Added Sugar Extra Dark (77%) “Ecuador”; No Added Sugar Dark (53%) with whole hazelnuts. Protein chocolate for a modern lifestyle Swiss premium chocolates for private label customers will also be at the heart of the Chocolats Halba/Sunray stand. In addition to bars in various formats (solid, flat and filled) between 5g and 400g as well as original chocolates (Ghana, Peru, Ecuador, Honduras and Dom. Rep.), the wide range includes organic and carbon-neutral chocolates and praline balls. More and more people today are taking care to look after their health and ensure a balanced lifestyle. Among the successful innovations of recent years are protein products, which have long since conquered the confectionery shelves. In line with these consumer trends, Chocolats Halba has developed new snack and to-go products. This also includes protein chocolate in bar format and a snacking variant, which will be presented at ISM. Incomparable aromas and unique recipes For almost two hundred years, Chocolats et Cacaos Favarger SA dedicated itself to producing top-quality Swiss chocolate. In accordance with strict quality criteria and guidelines, the Versoix factory produces the finest Swiss chocolate, which is distinguished by its high enjoyment factor. Steeped in tradition, the company is known for its Avelines chocolates, among other things. Only carefully selected cocoa beans are used for production. They form the basis for the cocoa mass, which is still completely produced in the company’s own craft production facility. Whole milk from Switzerland, hazelnuts, almonds and extract of Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar lend Avelines their harmonious taste and incomparable aromas. In addition to these exceptional specialties, the exhibitor will also be offering a variety of tablets in various flavors. Attractive gold bars with high enjoyment factor Fine chocolate bars exhibiting typical Swiss quality are not only popular with tourists as a small souvenir: in addition to the delicious contents, exceptional packaging also creates incentives to buy. Gold bars or gold coins with the finest chocolate filling are very special eye-catchers. Goldkenn SA is known for its specific chocolate assortment, which is available as eye-catching gift packaging at airports and tourist shops, among other places. A genuinely deceptive replica of a 12.5 kg gold bar, this bestseller has been promoting the Goldkenn brand in countless airports around the world for over 30 years. At the SWISS Pavilion, Goldkenn will be presenting high-quality Swiss chocolate in tablet formats, ingot chocolates, mini-golds, truffles and liqueur chocolate, chocolate sticks and, under the SwissDream brand, chocolate bars, napolitains as well as chocolate truffles. With its gold bar destinations and Amarula Liquor Bars, the company is expanding its existing offering. A special portion of happiness Maestrani Schweizer Schokoladen AG will be presenting organic chocolate, Fairtrade chocolate, chocolate bars with praline filling, fruit jelly, impulse products and chocolate bananas with genuine banana pulp at its stand. The new, cheerful Munz Ladybirds in an attractive gift box provide an extra portion of happiness. At first glance of the lid, you can see large and small ladybirds playing under the plastic, which creates desire for the contents. 19 more little Ladybirds are waiting in the lovingly designed box, just waiting to take off. Their fine milk chocolate and praline filling provide real moments of happiness. High quality and loving packaging design The SWISS Pavilion will once again be enriched by Milkboy Swiss Chocolates. Milkboy is a brand that can look back on 100 years of history. The lovingly designed packaging of the premium-segment chocolate bars delights even discerning connoisseurs. Two new dark chocolate bars will receive their premiere at the ISM: 72% cocoa with freshly roasted coffee and 72% cocoa with fresh crispy mint. In 2019, the company received three Great Taste Awards in the UK for its chocolate. Since ISM 2019, the company has won additional international customers, particularly in England, Germany and the Ukraine. New developments with original recipes Villars Maître Chocolatier SA constantly strives to translate global food trends into new chocolate specialties. Organic, regional, transparency and health aspects in the sense of “less is more” are important topics in this regard. Due to the huge range of products on the confectionery shelves, packaging design is becoming more and more important, as one also buys with the eye. Villars has therefore relaunched its packaging. The new packaging catches the eye with a brighter, more colorful design and attractive, typically Swiss subjects. In addition, consumers can obtain comprehensive information on the origin and ingredients (no palm oil and 100% cocoa beans) from the information on the packaging. At the SWISS Pavilion, the company will be presenting four new chocolate bars distinguished by their interesting recipes. The new organic and Fairtrade quality tablets are available in the flavors: Milk Chocolate With Chia, Milk Chocolate With Coconut And Puffed Rice, Dark Chocolate With Caramelized Pumpkin Seeds And Dark Chocolate (72%) With Cocoa Bean Chips. Furthermore, the company has developed a new bar with 85% cocoa content to meet the demand for dark chocolate and to complement the “Pur” line. More pleasure in everyday life Refreshingly different: this is how the two Roelli brothers Kristofer and Andreas von RoelliRoelli Confectionery AG like to be known. It is a statement that also fits their range. The innovative company will be presenting four new products at ISM 2020: functional sweets that go far beyond dental care and focus on more in life and love. The highlight is Happy Together Toffee – an aphrodisiac soft caramel for him and her that is supposed to bring more pleasure into everyday life. As the name suggests, the idea behind new product number two, Deto x-Plus Toffee, is detox. With its Natural Base Gum, the company has developed a chewing gum that fulfills the modern desire for pure nature. And last but not least, Chill Chill, the Shisha Gum, brings oriental-fruity moments of pleasure – everything is just a chew away. Fine biscuits with ruby chocolate Hug AG will be setting the focus on its Wernli brand at ISM. Fritz Wernli, the inventor of the Choco Petit Beurres Biscuits, combined a piece of bread with a series of chocolates and created a successful Swiss children's snack. From this idea, the most popular biscuit in Switzerland to this day was born in 1964. Today Wernli is THE expert for Choco Petit Beurre biscuits with the widest assortment and the mini format. At last year's ISM, Choco Petit Beurre Ruby, a crispy biscuit with a Swiss Ruby Rubina Chocolate Bar, made its big debut. Ruby chocolate contains no artificial colors or flavorings. The powerful natural aromas of fruit and red berries create a completely new and unfamiliar taste experience. It is the first product on the biscuit shelf to contain the new ruby chocolate. The company is further expanding Wernli's Choco Petit Beurre expertise with this innovation. Alpine specialist with new coffee biscuit line Since 1965, the fine Alpine specialties produced by the family business La Conditoria SEDRUN-SWITZERLAND have become known and loved far beyond the Swiss borders. The exhibitor received the Prix Montagne 2018, the Zacharias Prize 2017 and other awards for its quality products. Once again, the popular Alpine specialties of Mini Cakes and their leading product, the Mini Alpine Nutcakes, will be present at the stand. In addition, at ISM 2020 there will again numerous new products available for tasting by the international trade fair visitors. These include a new coffee biscuit line with three different varieties, a vanilla biscuit, the American cookie and the chocolate waffle. These items are perfect for serving with a coffee, and can also be offered around separately in bags or boxes. The company will also be presenting its chocolate line featuring chocolate tablet and pralines.

  • A Historical Review of the Swiss Chocolate Industry Ingrid
    4 From Small Chocolatiers to Multinationals to Sustainable Sourcing: A Historical Review of the Swiss Chocolate Industry Ingrid Fromm Introduction The food industry is currently focusing on increasing transparency along the entire chain, from production to consumption. Consumers are demanding that the food they put on their tables is sustainably produced, sourced and consumed. Having information about the origin of products will, in the future, become the norm rather than the exception. Transparency in the food chain has many dimensions and although consumers might be motivated to buy products that are sustainably produced, these decisions can potentially have a positive impact for farmers – be it within national boundaries or abroad – as well as for the environment. One example is represented by the chocolate industry. Chocolate is produced and consumed across multiple boarders. Having a transparent chain is a tremendous challenge. Cocoa beans come mostly from developing countries, where small-scale farmers are responsible for most of the global production. However, it is big players who dominate this industry and they are also the ones who are transforming it. | downloaded: 28.9.2021 Switzerland is long known as a leader in chocolate production. Swiss chocolates are recognized around the world as high-quality products and the demand is growing. The Swiss chocolate industry reported an increase in sales of almost 4% in 2013. Switzerland exports over 60% of the chocolate it produces. The foreign sales of Swiss chocolate remained strong, with an increase of 5.6%. Although the main export market for Swiss chocolate is the European Union, Switzerland exports chocolate to 150 countries.

  • The Swiss Market Potential for Cocoa 1. Product Description 2. What Makes Switzerland an Interesting Market for Cocoa?
    The Swiss market potential for cocoa Last updated: 10 February 2020 Switzerland has a strong reputation as a producer of high-quality chocolates. Several Swiss chocolate brands are well known internationally, including Lindt and Toblerone. As such, Switzerland is among the largest chocolate exporters in the world. The domestic market is also strong: Swiss consumers record the world’s highest per capita chocolate consumption. Contents of this page 1. Product description 2. What makes Switzerland an interesting market for cocoa? 3. Which trends offer opportunities on the Swiss market? 1. Product description The cocoa tree (Theobroma cacao) grows in tropical areas, between 15 and 20 degrees latitude north and south of the equator, in Africa, Asia and Latin America. Cocoa pods grow directly from the trunk and thicker branches of the tree. After extraction from the pod, cocoa seeds (beans) are fermented and (sun) dried. A cocoa producing tree can deliver on average 7-9 kg of dry beans per year. The three main varieties of the cocoa tree as distinguished by the international cocoa market are: 1. Forastero is the predominant cocoa variety. It is mainly cultivated in Africa, but also in Central and South America. It accounts for around 80% of global cocoa production. Forastero grows faster and has a higher yield than other cocoa varieties. The beans have a strong, earthy flavour. Generally, bulk cocoa beans come from Forastero trees. Well-known Forastero subspecies are Amelonado and Nacional. Nacional trees in Ecuador produce fine flavour cocoa. 2. Criollo (original cocoa tree) is mainly grown in Central America, northern South America, the Caribbean and Sri Lanka.

  • Nestlé Enters Global Super-Premium Chocolate Category with Swiss Chocolate Cailler
    Nestlé Enters Global Super-Premium Chocolate Category with Swiss Chocolate Cailler Switzerland’s Oldest Chocolate Brand Still in Existence Now Available in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany and, soon, China through Amazon and at Select International Travel Retail Stores VEVEY, Switzerland, September 30, 2015 – Cailler, part of the Nestlé portfolio of brands, is entering the super-premium chocolate market with its almost 200 year old Swiss chocolate brand. With Amazon as its primary retailer, Nestlé will now sell Cailler chocolate in the United States, United Kingdom and Germany with China distribution beginning in mid-November. Cailler also will be sold through travel retail outlets in major airports in Geneva, Zurich, Dubai and Singapore, as well as at the Maison Cailler Flagship in Broc, Switzerland. Cailler chocolate was first created in 1819 by M. Francois-Louis Cailler. His son-in-law then invented the world's first milk chocolate. In the years since, the Cailler recipes and rich tradition have been passed from generation to generation. The home of Cailler, “Maison Cailler” in Broc was built in 1898, and it has been there that Cailler chocolate has been crafted ever since. In 1929, Cailler joined the Nestlé portfolio of brands. “For the past 200 years our Cailler chocolates have been made in Switzerland,” said Sandra Martinez, head of the Confectionery Strategic Business Unit at Nestlé. “Cailler is part of our heritage. Each year more than 400,000 people come to Broc to taste our chocolate. Now chocolate lovers in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, and soon in China, can discover uniquely creamy and beautiful Cailler Swiss chocolate right in their homes.” Cailler chocolates are made from some of the finest ingredients available including selected cocoa beans from the Nestlé Cocoa Plan, an initiative to help farmers run profitable farms, improve social conditions in the cocoa-growing communities and source good quality, sustainable cocoa for Nestlé products.

Listen, I am a mad researcher on pop culture and trivia and I want to give that research and those topics to you for you to stump your family and friends. It is so much fun. Haaa. On today's episode, we are talking about Toblerone chocolate. What is Toblerone chocolate? Well, if you've been to any airport at any point in the past 100 years, you probably have seen the Toblerone chocolate boxes...the triangular long yellow boxes of Swiss delicious smooth milk chocolate. Well, let's get into it. The history of it is vast. Well, Toblerone is a world famous chocolate bar owned by the American multinational confectionary company, Mondelez International, formerly Kraft foods. Emile Bauman, the cousin of Theodore Tobler created the unique recipe consisting of milk chocolate, including nugget, almonds and honey [inaudible] in 1876 and then theater Tobler came up with the distinctive triangular shape and packaging that was very clever. It's very recognizable...after gaining the patent in 1909 Tobler experienced rapid success as a family favorite chocolate bar standing out from the crowded Swiss chocolate market, thanks to the distinctive flavor and shape of the box. That's right. You almost always will see a Toblerone chocolate box if you go to duty-free shops at almost any airport. The distinctive shape involves a series of jointed triangular prisms. The triangular shape is thought to represent the Matterhorn and the Swiss Alps while the image of the bear, which can be seen in the mountain, symbolizes Bern, the town of the chocolates origin.

  • Information About Milk Chocolate
    Milk chocolate Webquest a The history of milk chocolate The history of chocolate goes back a long way. Many years ago, the Maya Indians lived in Guatemala in Central America. They moved from Guatemala to the south-central part of Mexico. The Maya Indians took the cacao plant and beans with them. This plant grew in the rain forest. The Mayan people made a powder from the cacao beans. They then made a drink from the cocoa powder. This drink was very bitter and the Mayans used it as a medicine for coughs and fever. Later, the Aztec people began to rule Mexico. They found out about the cocoa drink and New worlds called it ‘xocalatl’. This is where the word chocolate comes from. In the 16th century, the Spanish explorer Christopher Columbus brought the cacao bean back to Europe from his travels. The Spanish added sugar and also vanilla to their cocoa drink. Only rich people could afford to drink cocoa. In 1795, a company called Joseph Fry & Sons in England used a machine to grind the cacao beans to make the powder. The machine worked by steam. cough Husten afford sich leisten können grind mahlen © Lehrmittelverlag des Kantons Zürich Milk chocolate Webquest 1 b In 1819, François-Louis Cailler returned from Italy after learning how to make chocolate.
